<VV> New Corvair owner in mid-FL needs some help

[Michael Mauro]

Hello Grant,
Hope you are doing well!

Re: New Corvair owner in mid-FL needs some help... "...There is a newish LM 110 owner in the St. Pete/Clearwater area who can't seem to find anyone to adjust his new carburetors..."




This person definately needs to contact Mike Moench, owner of JB Import Auto, in St. Pete... don't let 'Import' fool you. Mike and Company work on all sorts of unique and antique vehicles. 




 Mike has owned Corvairs himself, and we've 'conspired' together on my corvairs since  around 1980. 




Contach Info:




JB Import Auto... 387 16th St. North, St. Petersburg, FL 33705; (727) 823-5951... Ask specifically for Mike Moench.




Ciao!

Mike Mauro

There is a newish LM 110 owner in the St. Pete/Clearwater area who can't seem to find anyone to adjust his new carburetors. Our complicated discussions (he's not otherwise a car guy) led me to believe that the chokes are not adjusted or hooked up correctly. Said he has been to 5 different repair shops including a carburetor joint without being able to find someone to help. The car starts and drives but bogs/surges when going for power. The person who installed them for them said they didn't have any idea about the chokes. A quick look-see will probably show an obvious glitch. If you can help with a fix or referral to a place that can in the area, please drop me a reply.

There is a Monza GT go-cart sitting along PA 641, W Trindle Road, at approx 914 W Trindle Road, Mechanicsburg, PA. I hope someone attending the convention grabs this up. Price is $2500
